For the hostages

I can't believe those two poor American guys have been executed, beheaded, because of this flippin war. And now the remaining Brit's life is hanging by a thread - he's certain to die. Did you know that he's from Liverpool? That his family live just a mile down the road from where Nony and I are. It's kinda scary to think of how close this stuff can get to you.


I pray to god that some how, some way, there is any end to this nightmare of hostage-taking and rebellion. It's just my humble opinion, I know, but I think the troops should get their butts the hell out of Iraq and let them get on with sorting themselves out.

I say, give it back to Sadam ;). Then, let's bend over backwards to befriend the man and the country, so the "perceived" threat from him is no longer there. The Mid-East is a violent, chaotic culture, and has been for hundreds of centuries (family against family, neighbor against neighbor, one group against another)... it's what they know and what they do. We are not going to change that. It will change, but it will take time, and the Iraqi's need to do it in their own way, WITHOUT our help.

I agree, I don't think we should have been this involved in the first place. My heart goes out to all the families directly and indirectly affected by this unjust war. Snadra

I wish that all the heroic people come home safe and sound VERY soon.


What they are doing to the hostages is unhuman. I just saw the brother of the lastest one killed on Today Show, and it broke my heart hearing him sob.


Huggles & praying for all involved,


Robin

Sending prayers and angels to the troops, to their families, and to Iraq.


It makes me very sad.

"What's even more frightening is that the masses in this country are gobbling it up in the name of national pride."

THAT'S what gets me too Kim. Just because I am opposed to this whole mess doesn't make me any less American, or less sympathetic to their losses. Sandra
